Crowley Barge 180-1; Togiak, AK.
Togiak, AK.
1. The Crowley Barge 180-1 is grounded on a beach near the Togiak Fisheries Inc. Cannery in Togiak, Alaska. According to loading reports the barge has approximately 175,000 gallons of diesel, 24,000 gallons of gasoline, and 23,000 gallons of jet A fuel onboard. The double-hulled barge was intentionally grounded (on a soft, sandy bottom) for the delivery of the fuel; however, it grounded too high on the beach to re-float. There has been no spillage of any product and the likelihood of a release is considered small, but a hotline has been opened as a precaution. The owner is preparing a "salvage" plan, which will likely include off-loading a portion of the fuel onto another barge on Saturday. The USCG has requested information on potential resources at risk in the event that there is spillage of all or part of the fuel. The incident location is 59 degrees, 3 minutes north latitude and 160 [...]
